Fundsback: The expat’s digital gateway to German pensions

Let’s start with a few questions:

• Have you worked in Germany?
• Are you non-European?
• Are you currently living outside of Europe?

If your answer to all three was, “Yes”, then the following questions are really important:

Are you aware that, out of your salary, you have automatically paid contributions into the German Pension Insurance (DRV) every month?

Did you know that these pension insurance contributions are paid into your personal DRV account and are available for you there?

Do you know what you can do with your pension insurance contributions and how you can access the money?

Manage your German pension with Fundsback

Fundsback is a unique digital service that helps expats who have moved away from Germany manage their German pensions. Expats can choose from three different services:

• Pension Cash Out: Get your pension contributions refunded
• Pension Assist: Apply for your pension upon retirement
• Pension Booster: Get more out of your pension

Fundsback customers get a refund of 6.967 euros, on average

But perhaps the most important service Fundsback offers is their Pensioncheck service – an invaluable first step to check everything’s in order with your German pension account.

What is the Pensioncheck service?
